I created the splat activity resource for a student who was having difficulty in knowing when to use ou and ow in spellings. The activity itself can be easily adapted to other spellings and I first came across it as a game for teaching the multiplication tables.

The activity can be used with any spelling list or text. It could also be sued as an independent individual or group learning activity.
